She is survived by her daughter Danielle McGee and husband Patrick of West Granby, daughter Michelle Abrahamson and husband Chuck of Glastonbury, and was a loving grandmother to her five grandchildren, Caitlyn, Quincy, Maddee, Austin and Chase.  She will be missed by her family, friends and especially her cat “Weebie”.
